## About the role

As the Principal for Competitive Intelligence within the Cortex Product Management organization, you are the strategic link between the competitive landscape and our product roadmap. You don't just report on the market; you influence what we build. By applying Structured Analytic Techniques (SATs) to technical competitive data, you will provide the "Inconvenient Truths" that challenge our product assumptions.

## What they're looking for

- Your Experience
- 8+ years in CI, Product Management, or Sales Engineering within the Cybersecurity space (DSPM, CIEM, DLP, IAM, PAM, & JIT)
- Mastery of Structured Analytic Techniques. You must be able to move beyond "feature checklists" to produce high-nuance analysis that can withstand questioning from senior Product and Engineering leaders
- You can read a technical spec and understand the downstream implications for an enterprise security architect. You aren't just looking at the UI, you are looking at the architecture
- A core requirement for this team. You must be comfortable telling Product Leaders where their product is failing against the competition and backing it up with evidence
- Experience facilitating "Red Hat" analytic sessions for product launches to identify how competitors will likely attack our new features
